i was wondering if a computer out of a 1996 1500 4x4 with a 5.9L engine would work in a 2001 2500 4x4 with the same motor. i got the computer for free and mine has the death flash so i was wondering i could just put this one in? thanks

 

Your truck may start with the 96 computer, but I am relatively positive everything will not work right. Different sensors, transmission, elctronics, ODBI vs ODB2. I would not even attempt it in the fear that something in the truck would get fried by the older computer.

 

96 is ODB II.. but it still wont work on your truck like turkeyhunter said... but ill take that PCM off your hands.
